Ok I will try to give the full context:
• Johnny :
The most admired singer in France from early 60s to 2017 when he died.
He is the Elvis of France, sold more than 110M records WW. His concerts were huge!
To give you an idea on how big he was in the french music history, just 3 anecdotes:
1/ as a teenager, he was mentored by Edith Piaf and Charles Aznavour themselves !
2/ He was the first one who gave his chance to a young guitarist and his band, as a supporting act to his concerts during his 1966 tour. Name of the band: the Jimi Hendrix Experience!
3/ When he died in 2017, there were national funerals, with hundred of bikers on the Champs-Elysees, 1 million people long the path of the funeral procession. And this song was played when the coffin penetrated in the church.
Johnny was a real vocal powerhouse, but for this concert , in this last night, best perf, the mics were balanced in favor of Lara: he wanted her to shine and found this gave more drama to the duet.
• The song:
this is an anthem song for him, that he used to sing alone. This was turned into a duet for Lara.
The story of the song was created in reference to a very famous old french classic movie: Le Jour se Leve (1939) where the main character is barricaded and surrounded by the police, having killed a bad man who was his rival in love affairs.
Here it becomes more a « Bonnie and Clyde » scene where the main character and her girlfriend are defying the police.
• The venue/event:
Johnny’s concerts in Stade de France ( biggest stadium in Paris and France) in front of min 80,000. Lara was one of the surprise special guest.
They were supposed to perform it 3 times in a row on September 1998 (4th, 5th and 6th).
The first night on the 4th, it was deluge of rain, the scene was outdoor, it was risky and they decided at the last minute, with the crowd in the stadium, to postpone it to Sep 11th . Johnny was devastated.
The second night and the third night the weather was fine enough. There were 200+ musicians and 150+ chorists on stage. The orchestra and choir setup was amazing, the choir especially which was distributed on huge stairs climbing to the sky.
But the night of 11th, the rain was here again. Johnny absolutely refused to cancel this time.
This is this Sep 11th show that you just watched and the rein just added some dramatic effect to the whole performance. The orchestra was located under a tent. The choir was grouped on the floor and on some balconies (not on stairs anymore obviously)
• Lara:
she was at the beginning of her career in France and this performance became legendary and accelerated her fame there. She was just starting to be known in France when, in February 1998, she performed this song in duet with Johnny for Les Enfoires, the most attended France TV Show of each year.
Johnny was so surprised and amazed by Lara performance that he decided to do this song again as a duet with her for the 3 big concerts a few months later. In between February and September, the album Pure from Lara had become an absolute mega hit in France, and Lara was already a star.
But this live performance where she performs as a surprise guest definitely extended her fame and she got new fans across the entire This duet has become legendary and iconic in France, there is still at least one TV show every month coming back on this duet and exposing the behind-the-scenes moments.
Thank you for all the information. That's a wonderful story.
Quelle encyclopédie, chapeau vrai que Lara est inimitable ,pour moi c est la meilleure
👍👍Awesome performance. I enjoyed it very much. 🖖❤
The first time I saw this performance I was flabbergasted. Now, each time I am fascinated. Thanks and most of all thanks for your prayers 🙏💜😊💜
👍😍😍❤️
I absolutely agree, this is a spectacular performance, one of my favourites😍
Johnny was also an actor❤️
Lara as well by the way (she is an actress).
🇨🇦 Read the comments from Eric Sicard to understand this performance ! Then look for Erics other comment for a link with the translation !
Remember that for her own performances, Lara likes to produce and arrange everything ! In this case, she was simply a guest ! Lara is just simply the Best ! 🇨🇦
I read it and watched the subtitled version he posted.
every performance a Master Class in skill and finely honed technique.
This song is a song that Johnny sings normal alone.
There is written a second voice to sing it as a duet
Johnny sang many duets with all the stars in France an Europ an even with Celine Dion .
But the duet with Lara Fabian is the most impressive and Lara is by far his favorit singer.
Это просто ОГНЕННАЯ СТРАСТЬ!!!! Потрясающее Исполнение! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Лара Ф. БОЖЕСТВЕННО Честна и Чиста!!! 🕊️❤️🔥🕊️
Ericsicard wrote all needed about this performance.
About the performance, it is a concert done in a rainy night in an open place with thousands of spectators, the gesture had to be exaggerated.
About the movie: Le jours se leve , is a 1939 french movie with Jean Gabin ( one of the best french actors).
In english the title means : daybreak or day raise. Eric explained the story very good.
GRACIAS SEÑ0R .POR SU BELLAS REACCIONES . Y SUS ORACIONES , BENDICIONES PARA USTED TAMBIEN ! LARA FABIAN ES UNA ESTRAORDINARIA INTERPRETE Y UNA DE MIS CANTANTES FAVORITAS , IGUAL QUE DIMASH, Y DIANA ANKUDIVA. .Y ANGELINA JORDAN , UN SALUDO CORDIAL Y AFECTUOSO,
Gracias por las amables palabras.
Context of the song sung only by Johnny originally. It's the story of a man who killed the woman of his life by excess of passion (or by excess of violence?). He is surrounded in his house by the police and explains that the next morning he will let them kill him.
Love your reaction to this performance. Eric Sicard has said it all and very well. Being from French Canada - Quebec, I can tell you that Johnny was a big star here and Lara still is. Keep up your great work. ❤😊
johnny tu nous manques ♥♥
requiem is a style of music in classical music often used in dramatics npieces in honor of a dead person or situation to honor a deceased. Here it is to illustrate de last words of a man that killed the woman he loved, hisdespair and rage to seethe cops waiting outside where he was
This version has english subtitles

Thank you. That made a lot more sense.
Thanks you for your reaction, this song (Johnny Hallidays song) has been slightly modified to accommodate two performers (+Lara Fabian). 🙏

There is the same video with the subtitles.. go get it.
Here's another video of the same performance but with English subtitles ua-cam.com/video/zR1rkt_0biA/v-deo.html
This is the original version sung by Johnny, my version, favorite of this song sung by Johnny, I find that its youth and its beauty makes the music more epic: ua-cam.com/video/IrSzKGRIKFE/v-deo.html
Few realise Lara is today what Johnny was 50 years ago, Lara is the female carbone copie of Johnny Halliday. Lara is a treat to watch live as well, used to see her sing at night in Montreal region in live cabarets, when she lived here for a few years, her singing debut started here in Montreal. You just knew, you were going to be entertained. Check some of Johnny's pages as well, guarantee you will not be disappointed, he's called the French Elvis
I found this performance rather embarrassing.
Too much touchy feely?
It's a song with a compelling theme and performed in the style of a musical comedy song, therefore very theatrical.
